Atheism

The dark glasses are a lie. A senior detective told me many years ago not to trust anyone wearing dark glasses for no reason.

In the other case it is ridiculous to assume that if there were no cases of priests behaving in a criminal fashion the Church's teachings would suddenly appear in a golden light of enlightenment.

Why should I deal with the matter when the secular authorities approved and spent money, time and effort on the Pope's visit. Take it up with them.

It sure would be nice to hear your view points on the subject matter that was spoken about in the video. You seem to be open minded at times, Can you be on this video?

My views on these matters are all along the evolution threads. In some detail, at great length and under fire.

I see that you may have a greater interest in evolution but this is a different subject, not to mention this would be alot easy for you to prove true of false than evolution, as evolution seems to still be a science in it's infancy.

What point/s do you want clearing up rl?

I've watched Dawkins on many occasions. Is there something new?

I am not religious, nor am I an atheist. Perhaps there is a truth beyond both the religious and the disclaimers concerning the whole affair.

I ask this, the human mind has a definit function. Is it possible that there is common ground of reasoning for--not the mythology of religion--but the source material itself?

If you care further investigation on this possibility, at the bottom of this page,

I have watched him as well and I have never seen him speak of what he spoke of in that video,
I was hopeing that you may share your pont of views as to where he was wrong in what he said

Who wears high heels in airports?

Either state your point or give it a rest. He's wrong for using science for what it was not intended for. I daresay he gets the cold shoulder quite a bit in academia. An opportunist winding up the masses with simple half-truths and sophistries and who knows he's doing just that. It's his career. The Bradlaugh revisitation. It's a niche market and Media does so enjoy a nice ding-dong.

Don't keep saying "what he spoke of". What specifically have you in mind?

I do apologize Spendius, as I am having a difficult time relating to your responses. Your last response was how he uses science and you lost me there! The reason I say this is because I did not see any science in the video I shared with you.

Please be honest with me, If you have hate for him and will not consider what he says please just say so, either way I will still respect you as a person.
I was only hoping that you would at least prove where he is wrong.
I know that he has to be wrong about something, Are we not all wrong at times? I no that I am wrong often and I love when I am able to see it as this is how I learn from my mistakes.

I've asked you this before rl and I make no apologies for asking it again--are you taking the piss or doing a good imitation of somebody who is taking the piss?

I can't stand the silly ******.

I am cool with that at least you are honest. I sure would like to discuse things with you that we both disagree about. But I do understand as I could only guess that there has to be something that I would not want to talk about.

If you told me that you were abducted by aliens and that you had a offspring by them I would probably respond the same way," so I can see some what where you are coming from.

There will be at times when we all speak of things that go so far from what we think is reasonable that we would not want to speak about them. Do you agree?

That would depend on who one was speaking to and who might be listening in.

Thanks Spendius

That's okay rl. Do you have any more tricky questions?

I do know that it is halloween but I was not in any way trying to be tricky!

Mutations 1

Mutations are the only known means by which new genetic material becomes available for evolution (a).

The understanding of human evolution explains it all!

Pahu the paster. Why Pahu insists on befouling the thread with that **** is beyond me.
